Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tube of material for phase change material for heat exchanger heat exchange beam, particularly in the field of thermal management in a motor vehicle.
  • the heat exchangers generally comprise a bundle of parallel tubes formed of plates containing a first coolant, for example a refrigerant in the case of an air conditioning system evaporator.
  • the beam is also traversed by a second coolant, for example a flow of air for the passenger compartment, sweeping the tubes whose surface, increased by the addition of interfering or spacers between the tubes, optimizes the heat exchange.
  • phase change material associated with the tubes of the beam for the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid.
  • Such exchangers for example in the case of an evaporator of an air conditioning circuit, make it possible to maintain the cooling of a passenger compartment of the vehicle during a given period of time, especially when the vehicle engine is stationary and does not moreover causes the refrigerant circulation compressor, in particular for vehicles equipped with an automatic engine shutdown system during short stops of the vehicle. In these periods of stopping the engine, the phase change material captures heat energy to the air passing through the evaporator so as to cool it.
  • an evaporator for a vehicle air conditioning circuit comprising a heat exchange bundle provided with a set of refrigerant circulation tubes, a storage tank of phase change material being attached to the tubes. and an air passage being provided between the tubes and the cold storage tanks, in particular by protrusions and recessions formed between them.
  • the heat transfer between the tubes in which circulates the coolant and the tanks of material with phase change is reduced firstly by the existence of said protrusions and recessions extending over a large surface of each of the tubes and secondly, by the thickness of material involved in the heat transfer from the tube to the tank. Indeed, it includes the wall of the tube and the tank wall.
  • One of the aims of the present invention is to at least partially overcome the drawbacks of the prior art and to propose an improved tube of material for phase change for a more efficient use within a heat exchange bundle a heat exchanger.
  • the document WO10150774A1 describes a tube according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • an evaporator with cold storage function which comprises: a first unit of flat refrigerant flow tube, arranged at intervals and with a transverse direction of said unit directed in the ventilation direction; a second flat refrigerant flow tube unit, disposed on the downstream side of the first refrigerant flow tube unit and arranged at intervals and with the transverse direction of said second refrigerant flow tube unit; directed in the ventilation direction; and a tube unit filled with flat cold storage medium, into which a cold storage medium (P) is introduced, and which is arranged, with the transverse direction of said filled tube unit directed in the ventilation direction and between two adjacent refrigerant flow tube units in contact with one or the other of them.
  • This evaporator with cold storage function can prevent a drop in cold storage efficiency.
  • the filling channel does not exceed the width or height of the phase change material reservoir tube.
  • the filling channel does not exceed and does not interfere.
  • the filling channel comprises a stop.
  • the cap is made of metal.
  • the circulation plates and the tank plate are made of metal and fixed together by brazing, said metal cap being also fixed during the brazing of said plates together.
  • the cap is made of elastomeric or plastic material.
  • the cap is of larger size than the filling channel so as to be compressed within said filling channel.
  • the filling channel comprises a retaining tab folded over the end of said filling channel opening on one of the edges of the tube with a material reservoir with phase change.
  • the retaining tab is made of material with the reservoir plate.
  • the cap comprises a filling orifice.
  • the retaining tongue when it is folded down, covers the filling orifice of the plug.
  • the retaining tongue has a projection intended to be inserted at least partially into the filling opening of the plug when said retaining tab is folded.
  • the phase change material reservoir tube comprises a sealant and sealant paste between the reservoir tank fill spout and the stopper.
  • the tube of the phase change material tank 1 comprises two circulation plates 3 and at least one tank plate 5.
  • the two circulation plates 3 are configured to be assembled to one another in a sealed manner and to form at least one duct 31 in which circulates a first heat transfer fluid between said circulation plates 3.
  • the two circulation plates 3 are preferably identical and contiguous to one another in "mirror", this which makes it possible to have only one type of circulation plate 3 to produce and thus makes it possible to save during the production.
  • the at least one tank plate 5 has in turn cavities 51 and is configured to come together sealingly on an outer face of one of the two circulation plates 3 so as to close the cavities 51 and form housing phase change material. These cavities 51 are projecting on the external face of the reservoir plate 5 so that a second heat-transfer fluid, for example an air flow, can circulate between said cavities 51.
  • a second heat-transfer fluid for example an air flow
  • phase change material reservoir tube 1 In order to produce the phase change material reservoir tube 1, there are only two different types of plates used, namely two circulation plates 3 and at least one reservoir plate 5. Such a design makes it possible to limit the production of such a reservoir tube to these two types of plates, thus generating savings in production costs. In addition, because of this reduced number of plate types, the mounting is simplified.
  • phase change material reservoir tube 1 An additional advantage of the phase change material reservoir tube 1 is that the phase change material is directly in contact with the circulation plate 3, which facilitates and improves the heat energy exchange between the first heat transfer fluid and the phase change material.
  • the circulation plates 3 may also comprise recesses 32 preferably made by stamping in a homogeneous distribution over the entire circulation plate 3.
  • the circulation plates 3 comprise an external face intended to be oriented towards either a reservoir plate 5, a heat exchange element with the second heat transfer fluid, such as a corrugated plate.
  • Each circulation plate 3 comprises an internal face opposite to the external face from which each recess 32 extends so that their summit part is in contact with the adjacent circulation plate 3.
  • the recesses 32 are staggered on the circulation plate 3. Due to such a distribution, the inner face of each hollow 32 is in the flow path of the first fluid defined by the conduit 31, while the outer face can form a local reserve of phase change material, thereby increasing their heat exchange.
  • the outer face of the circulation plate 3 is provided with recesses 32, the latter form complementary reserves of phase-change material so that for a given space, a tube with a reservoir 5 of phase-change material is provided.
  • recesses 32 allow increased storage of phase change material. This has the effect of increasing the time during which the phase change material exchanges heat energy with the second fluid.
  • phase change material reservoir tube 1 can be used in an evaporator type heat exchanger which is adapted to receive a refrigerant whose pressure has a nominal value of approximately 15 bar. .
  • the tube of the phase change material tank 1 comprises a single tank plate 5, on one of its external faces in contact with the second heat transfer fluid.
  • the other of its faces is in contact with a corrugated heat exchange plate with the second heat transfer fluid, such corrugated plate being sometimes called fin or spacer.
  • the tube 1 may nevertheless comprise a tank plate with a reservoir of phase change material 1 on each of its external faces in contact with the second heat transfer fluid as shown in FIG. figure 3 .
  • the phase change material reservoir tube 1 may comprise a common filling orifice (not shown) of the projecting cavities 51 of the two reservoir plates 5.
  • the projecting cavities 51 have a domed shape. These domes are more particularly staggered so that the second heat transfer fluid can flow between them.
  • the projecting cavities 51 have an oblong shape.
  • the projecting cavities 51 are then distributed in "V" with respect to the longitudinal axis A of the tank plate 5 as shown in FIG. figure 6 .
  • This shape and this particular distribution make it possible for the phase change material reservoir tube 1 to contain a larger amount of material with phase change than for the dome shape and also make it possible to limit the pressure drops of the second heat transfer fluid when of its passage between the projecting cavities 51.
  • the protruding cavities 51 whether in the first or the second embodiment, have a flat apex 55 respectively of cylindrical section and of polygonal section, for example approximately trapezoidal.
  • Such vertices 55 are intended to come into contact with an exchange tube 30 disposed vis-a-vis within the heat exchange bundle 100, as shown on FIG. figure 7 .
  • the exchange tube 30 may be a tube provided with micro channels, such a tube being derived from the superposition of flat plates and a corrugated plate, the latter being sometimes referred to as internal spacer, said corrugated plate being then disposed between the two adjacent flat plates to form the micro-channels.
  • the exchange tube 30 may more particularly be composed of two circulation plates 3, as previously described, assembled to one another in a sealed manner.
  • the figure 8 shows a heat exchange bundle 100 comprising tubes of material of phase change material 1 in order to eventually form a heat exchanger.
  • the heat exchange bundle 100 here comprises, distributed over its entire length, three tubes of phase change material tank 1. Two of these phase change material tank tubes 1 comprise a tank plate 5 on each of their external faces in contact with the second heat transfer fluid.
  • the third tube containing material of phase change material 1 has only a single tank plate 5 on one of its outer faces in contact with the second heat transfer fluid.
  • the total number of phase change material tank tubes 1 and reservoir plates 5 present within a heat exchange bundle 100 is a function of its size and length. The longer the heat exchange bundle 100, the greater this number is in order to ensure a cooling of the second heat transfer fluid continues and even if the first heat transfer fluid circulates more in said beam, for example during a shutdown of the compressor.
  • the tube containing phase change material 1 because it is composed of two circulation plates 3 and at least one tank plate 5, allows simple assembly and inexpensive manufacture.
  • the phase-change material is directly in contact with the circulation plate 3 which facilitates and improves heat energy exchange between the first heat transfer fluid and the phase change material.

As a result, the filling channel 200 does not exceed either in width or in height of the phase change material reservoir tube 1. Thus, when said tube of material of phase change material 1 is integrated within a heat exchange bundle 100, the filling channel 200 does not exceed and does not interfere.

  • said plug 210 may for example be larger than that of the filling channel 200 so that said cap 210 is compressed inside the filling channel 200. This because of this compression, the sealing at the filling channel 200 is ensured.
